身語放輕鬆 Relaxing Your Speech and Body

身語放輕鬆

01

在不同的環境中，我們可以有不同的表法，但是內心一定要符合佛法，一定要與佛法相應。如果內心與佛法不相應，跟佛法背道而馳的話，我們表法表得再好，在外表上顯得再有威儀，再有修行，再精進，也不會有任何改變，不會有任何成就的。若是我們的心、思想、境界能夠與佛法相應，外表怎麼都可以。

In different circumstances, we can demonstrate and reveal the truth of Dharma in different ways, but our hearts must conform to the Dharma. If the mind does not correspond with the Dharma, and run counter to it, even though we behave better, and in appearance, it looks as if we were more dignified, more practiced, more diligent than others, we can change or achieve nothing at all. If our mind and realizations can correspond with the Dharma, it will be fine no matter what the appearance looks like.

為了恆順眾生，我們的外表、外在，包括言行舉止，肯定有時候像修行，有時候不像修行；有時候會有一些善的表法，有時候會有一些惡的表法。我們與這些眾生接觸，在幫助眾生、利益眾生的過程中，在表面上肯定會有愛的表情，也會有恨的表情；有高興的表情，也有傷心的表情。很多大德高僧也是：有時候心情很低落，有時候心情很輕鬆；有時候很高興，有時候很生氣；有時候笑，有時候哭；有時候說一些粗話，有時候說一些軟語。外在的行為沒有一定的標準。

In order to be agreeable to all beings, our appearance, including our behavior, must sometimes look like practitioners, but sometimes not. Sometimes it appears evil, but sometimes it appears kind. We contact with these beings and in the process of helping and benefiting them, surely we show our expressions of love or hatred on the surface; we also have expressions of joy and sadness. Many eminent monks and siddhas act in the same way, sometimes depressed, sometimes easy, sometimes happy, sometimes angry, sometimes laughing, sometimes crying, sometimes saying coarse words, and sometimes speaking softly. There is no standard on the surface.

我經常強調，修行修心，念佛念心，一切功夫都要下到心地上，心善一切善，心惡一切惡。善惡不在表面上，不在形式上，都在心裡，也是這個意思。所以大家要恆時觀察自己心的相續，調整自己內心的狀態，這才是真正的念佛，這才是真正的修行。

I always emphasize that practice is just practicing your mind, and chanting the Buddhas name is just chanting your mind. All efforts should be made in your mind. Everything is good if mind is good; everything is evil if mind is evil. Evil or kind is not on the surface, not in form, but in the heart. So everyone must observe your own continuity of mind constantly, and adjust yourself, which is true practice and truly chanting the Buddhas name.
